Neu! Reekie! take New York

Neu! Reekie! - the inventors of the Raffle of the Absurd and so much more - did 2 shows in New York this weekend.

Reviews were ecstatic as only to be expected.

Thank you Neu Reekie for being ridiculously adorable
 and bringing me on to your Scottish brigade tonight. xoxo

Let's hope for a surge of cross-cultural-pollination...

Post five whopping shows, Michael Pedersen (contributor to poetandgeek Issue 1) and Kevin Williamson bring you the sixth part in the N! R! movement. Featuring:

And so much more; not to mention the Raffle of the Absurd; Avant-garde Animations; and Pete the Barman and his £2 tonics. Find the event at Trunk’s Close, 55 High Street, Edinburgh, Scotland (a suitably tartan-noir address).
